Inkling: security envelope envelopes

I’m sure you’ve seen security envelopes used for a variety of paper crafts. Some of the envelopes have beautiful designs.

What’s the most obvious thing to make out of security envelopes? More security envelopes.

I used the security envelopes from bills and junk mail to make liners for note card size envelopes.

Simply open up your junk mail envelope until you have a flat piece of paper.

Measure your note card envelope and cut out a liner to fit inside.

Use a glue stick to glue your liner to the inside of your envelope.

 
 A great way to dress up plain note card envelopes and upcycle junk mail.
